TGIF Transcription Factors Repress Acetyl Coa Metabolic Gene Expression and Promote Intestinal Tumor Growth Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on October 3, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press TGIF transcription factors repress acetyl CoA metabolic gene expression and promote intestinal tumor growth Anant Shah,1 Tiffany A.

Tgifs are essential for embryogenesis and may function in tumor progression. By analyzing both gain and loss of Tgif function in a well-established mouse model of intestinal cancer, we show that Tgifs promote adenoma growth in the context of mutant Apc (adenomatous pol- yposis coli). Despite the tumor-suppressive role of TGFβ signaling, transcriptome profiling of colon tumors suggests minimal effect of Tgifs on the TGFβ pathway. Instead, it appears that Tgifs, which are up-regulated in Apc mutant colon tumors, contribute to reprogramming metabolic gene expression. Integrating gene expression data from colon tumors with other gene expression and chromatin-binding data identifies a set of direct Tgif target genes encoding proteins involved in acetyl CoA and pyruvate metabolism. Analysis of both tumor and nontumor tissues indicates that these genes are targets of Tgif repression in multiple settings, suggesting that this is a core Tgif function. We propose that Tgifs play an important role in regulating basic energy metabolism in normal cells, and that this function of Tgifs is amplified in some cancers.

Here, we report the clinical phenotypes of seven additional individuals with the same recurrent de novo CTBP1 mutation. Within this cohort, we identified consistent CtBP1-related phenotypes of intellectual disability, ataxia, hypotonia, and tooth enamel defects present in most patients. The R342W mutation in CtBP1 is located within a region implicated in a high affinity-binding cleft for CtBP-interacting proteins. Unbiased proteomic analysis demonstrated reduced interaction of several chromatin-modifying factors with the CtBP1 W342 mutant. Genome-wide transcriptome analysis in human glioblastoma cell lines expressing -CtBP1 R342 (wt) or W342 mutation revealed changes in the expression profiles of genes controlling multiple cellular processes. Patient-derived dermal fibroblasts were found to be more sensitive to apoptosis during acute glucose deprivation compared to controls. Glucose deprivation strongly activated the BH3-only pro-apoptotic gene NOXA, suggesting a link between enhanced cell death and NOXA expression in patient fibroblasts.

Acetyl-coenzyme A (AcCoA) is a key metabolic intermediate that is crucial for cancer cell metabolism, especially under metabolic stress. It is of special significance to decipher the role acetyl-CoA synthetase short chain family (ACSS) in cancer cells confronting metabolic stress. Here we analyzed the generation of lipogenic AcCoA in bladder cancer cells under metabolic stress and found that in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA) cells, the proportion of lipogenic AcCoA generated from glucose were largely reduced under metabolic stress. Our results revealed that ACSS3 was responsible for lipogenic AcCoA synthesis in BLCA cells under metabolic stress. Interestingly, we found that ACSS3 was required for acetate utilization and histone acetylation. Moreover, our data illustrated that ACSS3 promoted BLCA cell growth. In addition, through analyzing clinical samples, we found that both mRNA and protein levels of ACSS3 were dramatically upregulated in BLCA samples in comparison with adjacent controls and BLCA patients with lower ACSS3 expression were entitled with longer overall survival. Our data revealed an oncogenic role of ACSS3 via regulating AcCoA generation in BLCA and provided a promising target in metabolic pathway for BLCA treatment. 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; Introduction acetyl-CoA synthetase short chain family (ACSS), which In cancer cells, considerable number of metabolic ligates acetate and CoA6.

  • Identification of Foxr2 As an Oncogene in Medulloblastoma
    Published OnlineFirst March 5, 2014; DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-13-1523 Cancer Tumor and Stem Cell Biology Research Identification of FoxR2 as an Oncogene in Medulloblastoma Hideto Koso1,2, Asano Tsuhako1, Eli Lyons1, Jerrold M. Ward2, Alistair G. Rust3, David J. Adams3, Nancy A. Jenkins2,4, Neal G. Copeland2,4, and Sumiko Watanabe1 Abstract Medulloblastoma is the most common pediatric brain tumor, and in 25% of cases, it is driven by aberrant activation of the Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) pathway in granule neuron precursor (GNP) cells. In this study, we identified novel medulloblastoma driver genes through a transposon mutagenesis screen in the developing brain of wild-type and Trp53 mutant mice. Twenty-six candidates were identified along with established driver genes such as Gli1 and Crebbp. The transcription factor FoxR2, the most frequent gene identified in the screen, is overexpressed in a small subset of human medulloblastoma of the SHH subtype. Tgif2 and Alx4, 2 new putative oncogenes identified in the screen, are strongly expressed in the SHH subtype of human medulloblas- toma. Mutations in these two genes were mutually exclusive with mutations in Gli1 and tended to cooccur, consistent with involvement in the SHH pathway. Notably, Foxr2, Tgif2, and Alx4 activated Gli-binding sites in cooperation with Gli1, strengthening evidence that they function in SHH signaling. In support of an oncogenic function, Foxr2 overexpression transformed NIH3T3 cells and promoted proliferation of GNPs, the latter of which was also observed for Tgif2 and Alx4. These findings offer forward genetic and functional evidence associating Foxr2, Tgif2, and Alx4 with SHH subtype medulloblastoma.

This therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome/acute mye- translocation is observed in patients with therapy-related loid leukemia (t-MDS/AML) patients, and to a lesser myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), with chronic myelo- extent with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) genous leukemia during the blast crisis (CML-BC), and patients during the blast crisis of their disease (Rubin with de novo or therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia et al., 1990; Nucifora et al., 1993). The AML1 gene (AML). AME is obtained by in-frame fusion of the (also known as CBFA2, PEBP2 or RUNX1) encodes AML1 and MDS1/EVI1 genes. We have previously the DNA-binding subunit of the core-binding tran- shown that AME is a transcriptional repressor that scription factor (CBF). AML1 interacts with the other induces leukemia in mice. In order to elucidate the role subunit of CBF, CBFb, which has no DNA-binding of AME in leukemic transformation, we investigated the domain.

  • Rapid Evolution of Mammalian X-Linked Testis-Expressed Homeobox Genes
    Copyright 2004 by the Genetics Society of America DOI: 10.1534/genetics.103.025072 Rapid Evolution of Mammalian X-Linked Testis-Expressed Homeobox Genes Xiaoxia Wang and Jianzhi Zhang1 Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 Manuscript received November 26, 2003 Accepted for publication February 11, 2004 ABSTRACT Homeobox genes encode transcription factors that function in various developmental processes and are usually evolutionarily conserved in their sequences. However, two X-chromosome-linked testis-expressed homeobox genes, one from rodents and the other from fruit flies, are known to evolve rapidly under positive Darwinian selection. Here we report yet another case, from primates. TGIFLX is an X-linked homeobox gene that originated by retroposition of the autosomal gene TGIF2, most likely in a common ancestor of rodents and primates. While TGIF2 is ubiquitously expressed, TGIFLX is exclusively expressed in adult testis. A comparison of the TGIFLX sequences among 16 anthropoid primates revealed a signifi- cantly higher rate of nonsynonymous nucleotide substitution (dN) than synonymous substitution (dS), strongly suggesting the action of positive selection. Although the high dN/dS ratio is most evident outside ف the homeobox, the homeobox has a dN/dS of 0.89 and includes two codons that are likely under selection. Furthermore, the rate of radical amino acid substitutions that alter amino acid charge is significantly greater than that of conservative substitutions, suggesting that the selection promotes diversity of the protein charge profile. More interestingly, an analysis of 64 orthologous homeobox genes from humans and mice shows substantially higher rates of amino acid substitution in X-linked testis-expressed genes than in other genes.
